Red Velvet Chocolate Cake Recipe

Instructions Allow butter to come to room temperature. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Using a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar. Add one egg and beat well. Repeat until all eggs are incorporated. Combine cocoa and food coloring and add to sugar mixture. Add 1 cup of flour followed by 1/3 cup buttermilk. Repeat until both are fully added. Gently mix the baking soda and vinegar. Stir slowly into the mixture. Pour the batter into three greased and floured 8-inch pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow it to cool while making the frosting.
